Support for multiple same-service tokens in desktop apps #2

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

It's important for Consumer app developers to keep in mind that Users may have 
multiple accounts 
with the same Service Provider and that tokens should be able to be stored for 
each remote 
account. WordPress.com is a good example of this where a user may have multiple 
blogs to which 
she can post, and may use an application like MarsEdit or Ecto to severally 
post to them.

This is also true, but less likely, for Flickr accounts, where a single user 
may have access to or 
posting rights, to several Flickr accounts. Consumer applications should 
determine whether they 
support one account at a time or multiple.
